I don't know how involved I'll be on the social side.
I never stopped running. I still use my tips and tricks I picked up.
I don't really weigh myself so I have no idea how much I weigh. I'm happier that way.
My goals are strictly distanc... Read more

So I mentioned my awesome Doctor?
I had mentioned to him that since I finished c25k I feel like I have no where to go. I'm trying to increase speed, but feel stuck. He suggested going through c25k again but this time focus on speed during the ... Read more

I am pretty much the same weight and measurements I was when I left.
I left, partly, because I had life issues to attend to. My daughter and I have been officially set up in our own apartment since September. I got promoted at work. I'm divorc... Read more

Every 5 lbs I've been hitting a plateau. I feel it unfair that I've been working so hard and not losing pounds. I can officially run 10k on a 6 minute per mile time average. I have logged so many miles. I feel my butt should've literally fallen ... Read more

It's official, after one of the longest plateaus ever I have finally lost some weight and I am 50 lbs down from 256.
It wasn't easy. I've fallen off the wagon. I've failed. I've been injured. I've cried, screamed, and begged. I've gone through... Read more

I've been out in the world, so I don't always track. As a single working parent, I've accepted that I can only do so much a day. Food tracking is too much to do daily, so I only do it when I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong (most of the tim... Read more

So I've been working nonstop the past week and a half. I've squeezed in a few work outs but not as many as I would like. I still suck at tracking, but I'm doing my best.
I decided to have a 'day of fitness' today, me and monkey. Of course it r... Read more

As anyone who follows my posts or blog knows, I left my husband back in July. I was in no condition to date afterwards (obviously). So it's been 8 months, I decided to get back out there.
There's a regular at my store that I'd been interested ... Read more

My original goal jeans were loose so I went shopping for new jeans and a new pair of goal jeans. Lo and behold I put on the 14s and ... they were LOOSE. I had a moment where I just couldn't believe it. My mind just wouldn't accept it. They had t... Read more

Life has had it's ups and downs. What a crazy ride the past 12 months has been.
I haven't been on Spark daily like I would like and at first I would use that as an excuse to not work out. I would be all "I'm not going to do it if I'm not goin... Read more

I've been really bad about tracking. I've also not let it stop me from finding opportunities to work out.
My food goes from a mostly good week with a few days of wagon falling. I still won't eat 'all' of anything though. Not all of a pizza or ... Read more

So, long story short, I ended up getting pneumonia and a double ear infection. My lungs still aren't all the way clear but the Doc cleared me to work out again on Monday. So I will be back again, finally.
Monday is Halloween, which also happen... Read more

I haven't been around b/c I am STILL sick. I just can't shake it. And to top it off my daughter has croup, for those of you who's kids have had it you know how scary that is the first time it happens. So I've been MISERABLE, sleep deprived, and ... Read more
